    Roaster’s Notes
    We love working with Jeanine Niyonzima, the founder of JNP Coffee, who has been changing the lives of Burundian farmers for the last 10 years by paying impactful prices for delicious coffees. JNP has started a new project in Karuzi called Ubuto, which means "young" in Kirundi, because of the newer trees producing its fresh flavor profile with clean balance of citrus and floral flavors.
